I need to put a timing belt on a daewwoo lanos

Check camshaft oil seal also if head wasn't skimmed or not torqued down properly & with new bolts it could be leaking out of head gasket

did the belt break or is this regular maint??? it is an interfearance
head , if it broke the valves will all be bent end of that story.
if you have it apart be very careful turning things (you will hit valves) if old belt is still on ,take a paint marker , mark the belt and cam gears and the crank with one dot one the belt edge and gear face. remove belt ,lay new belt edge to edge and transfer marks exactly onto new belt slip new belt onto cams n crank verify everything is matched to old marks if tensioner is adjustable dont make it to tight or it will "sing" this way if it was running when you shut it off it does not matter where the timing belt marks are because nothing should be out time.

Hi, I'm having trouble linking to you on the chat window, but here is a link to the diagrams you would need. Please let me know if you have any questions. http://www.2carpros.com/diagrams/daewoo/lanos/2000

hi, just letting you know my timing belt just went on my daewoo lanos. unfortunately it seems in a daewoo lanos that when the timing belt goes, it can do damage to one of the valves. mine is in at the mechanics and i am still hoping that it hasnt done any damage. i was also told that if you have replaced the timing belt and the car still wont start it has definitely done damage to a valve. sorry to give you the bad news!!

It sounds like you have either got a bad problem with the timing marks
as you only need the timing to be out 1 tooth and (nfg) So recheck ALL timing marks( but dont go by some ones pen marks) as you must use the marks from factory only,other wise check spark and wiring plugs,if you have spark then check fuel lines .
But check timing marks first...

single cam or twin?

timming marks on cams face each other 3 and 9 o clock crank mark at about 6 o clock mark in cover and sump auto adjuster arrow should be in v mark to set this requires turning water pump by loosening water pump bolts slightly be warned some times this causes pump o ring seal to leak if turning.

The A16DM engine fitted to the 1997-2003 Daewoo Lanos 1.6, the timing marks point at each other

theres a line on the crank facing down. the cams have a line that need to face one another. good luck save as fixya thanx

Hi, I have a 1997, Daewoo celio 1,5 I and the cam belt snapped. I dont think that the pistons hit the valves but I cant be sure, I have a new belt and woud like some info on how to go about changing the belt and setting the timing on this car. I am not a novice mechanic but need some advise. Thanks Brent
